Kang Daniel, who arrived in India on November 25, conveyed his gratitude for being selected for this honor:
“It is an honor to be invited to the ABU Song Festival, where the best singers from ABU member countries gather and present their talents. This year’s festival is held in New Delhi, India, so I am even more excited and looking forward to it. India has always been one of the countries I have always wanted to visit, and I am delighted to finally be able to visit it for the first time. We will greet you with a wonderful stage that can be a good memory.”
In other news, Kang Daniel recently released his repackage full album 'The Story : RETOLD' along with a vibrant music video to its title track "Nirvana" featuring rapper pH-1 and dance crew WDBZ.
